4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for brushing up
Found this to be rather useful as a refresher. I can imagine a beginner feeling a little lost or overwhelmed without classroom instruction or a tutor to model pronunciation and train the ear to hear this language. It includes written dialogues, vocabulary, grammatical instruction, reviews and tests.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Recommended For Beginners
The book doesn't take the time to explain anything; its just straight forward, "here's the words, memorize them and complete the exercises." I found it very difficult to learn anything from this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars I learned italian in less than 20 lessons, September 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Berlitz Essential Italian (Berlitz Essentials) (Paperback)
I loved this book! It taught me really well. I was really prepared to go to Rome after using this book because I could speak the language. It is easy to use and self-explanitory. I am very glad that I used it.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent learning tool, October 17, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Berlitz Essential Italian (Berlitz Essentials) (Paperback)
I found this Berlitz language guidebook to be up to par with this company's usual excellent quality language instruction. This book would be a valuable addition to anyone's Italian language self instruction collection.
